Sonus faber

35 years ago Sonus faber was founded by Franco Serblin. His passion is ‘to model wood on waves of music, transforming the speaker into a musical instrument’. Hence the development of these extraordinarily beautiful speakers with sound that is captivating listeners all around the world. Sonus fabers standard of excellence is firmly rooted in old world craftsmanship. They manufacture articles of surpassing beauty employing highly technical processes, but remain dedicated to the understanding that man and his work will always remain the protagonist.

Omnia nz $3500

An all-in-one high end wireless speaker system by Sonus faber, a company that defines both luxury audio and the high end of loudspeaker design.

Sonus faber pull out the stops with their aesthetic; the Omnia is evocative of a James Bond lifestyle, curvaceous and sleek with a beautiful walnut top panel inlaid with a series of illuminated strips that also serve as control and display.

Give Omnia great signal via the likes of Tidal connect and it can really open out with a power and authority that is directly comparable with serious larger speakers.The dash panel of a high performance car, the deck of a bespoke Italian speedboat.

Upfront and personal – Let’s take a really close look at what makes this particular model of Sonus faber so special and learn about what it can do for you.

Sonus faber Lumina I

The Lumina I is a speaker you can choose to buy with confidence. Sonus faber accurately articulate the story behind the Lumina range with their videos and site information and I’ve found the actual speakers deliver everything they suggest and more.

Life is full of surprises and the new Sonus faber Lumina III floor standing speaker system is one of the better ones.

But as you’ll discover, Sonus faber speakers are all about character and the Lumina III highlights this in some very exciting ways.
